Autentico Vintage Chalk Paint is our original genuine chalk paint of high quality and durability. It is suitable for furniture surfaces, indoors, and decorative objects and specially designed for finishing with our furniture wax. We use more than 35% calcium carbonate (chalk) as a filler, so it is a genuine chalk paint. The paint has a low VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) content and is safe for children (EN71-3).

It is ideal for furniture and decorative interior objects, decorative painting techniques, and wax finishing. Many surfaces can be painted, including wood, varnished wood, PVC, metal, and glass, as well as those previously treated with our primer.

Preparation and application: Mix the product well before use. The surface must be clean, dry and stable. Clean and remove residues of dust, grease or other impurities. For this, we recommend our special soap, Autentico Omniclean.

Glossy, varnished, plastic or heavily used surfaces: Apply a coat of Autentico Wood & Wall Primer or open the pores with fine sandpaper.

Rough wood: Apply a coat of Autentico Wood & Wall Primer; some types of wood, such as oak, pine, chestnut or mahogany, may change the colour of your workpiece due to the tannic acid present that reacts with the paint. A coat of Autentico Wood & Wall Primer prevents this. If you doubt adhesion, apply a Wood & Wall Primer coat to untreated wood or surfaces with coffee, tea, nicotine or smoke stains.

Apply two coats (or as many as required for the desired finish) with a brush or roller. The number of coats may vary depending on the tool used; with a roller, you will always need more coats than a brush. Sealing the work with Autentico Wax, Autentico Protex Spray, or our Deco varnish extra matt is essential.

Coverage
One litre covers approximately 8-13 m2, depending on the surface to which it is applied, its porosity and roughness.

Drying time
It will feel dry after 30 minutes, but allow at least 2 hours drying time between coats. Drying time may vary depending on environmental conditions.

Recommendations
Autentico products should be applied above 10ºC or below 30ºC. Not suitable for outdoor use.

The paint dries quickly but needs several weeks to cure, so we recommend being careful the first few days to avoid unevenness and scratches.

Precautions
Avoid contact with the eyes. If contact does occur, rinse immediately and thoroughly with plenty of water. May cause allergic reactions. Safety data sheet available on request.

Storage
Store leftover paint in a cool, dry place and avoid freezing. Do not store below 5ºC and above 30ºC.
